Chapter 145: The Rogue Ring
The men of the Demon Dragon Clan, one counts as one, all of them are the sons of the patriarch, and the oldest of them is over fifty years old.
That patriarch looked middle-aged, but he was actually in his eighties, and for a war spirit master with a lifespan of two hundred years, it was not surprising that eighty years old looked like forty years old.
In this regard, Chang Le can only admire his strength, counting those who died of illness or died in battle at different times, didn't he give birth to thousands of children?
But the nearly 1,000 women of the whole clan are both his daughters and his wives, which is extremely outrageous.
Generally, men will take care of their children from an early age, but this demon dragon patriarch has too many children and does not raise them personally, so no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, there is no family affection at all.
The children had to attend the rite of passage at the age of fourteen, and the patriarch saw them at the annual ceremony as a stranger, and a new group of slaves could serve him again, and that's it.
Therefore, in the last step of the coming-of-age ceremony, the boy took the risk of learning to ride the necromantic bird, and after training, he was a qualified necromantic knight, and it didn't matter if he couldn't practice and fell to death.
The final procedure of the girls' coming-of-age ceremony is for everyone to kneel on the ground, their foreheads on the ground to praise the great demon dragon, and at the same time, the patriarch comes behind them, holding his hips with a holy face, and makes a collision with everyone.
In this cry of pain, the girls became women and the wives of the patriarchs.
With the brief introduction of Pabadua, Chang Le's relaxed mood after controlling the situation gradually tightened, and finally he couldn't help but be angry.
The Demon Dragon Patriarch is not only cruel to his sons, but also to his daughters and wives.
From the time the girls lined up to complete the so-called "coming-of-age ceremony" and were sent to the "nursery area", there were no men at all, except for a few closely monitored guards and the sisters' underage sons.
There they were reduced to slavery, except for eating and sleeping, the rest was to be taught by the elders and sisters, learn various skills, and wash themselves with spring water every day, just waiting for the patriarch to come.
For these women, they don't know that there is still a husband's love and affection in the world, and they can only try to please the patriarch when they are lucky enough to be visited, and the patriarch is happy, and maybe he can enjoy a little meat to eat.
If you can give birth to a child, not only will there be more laughter in your life, but you will also have more abundant food, which is the highest pursuit of a woman of the Demon Dragon Clan.
Even if they were so docile and used as a tool for the patriarch's amusement and procreation, they still faced death at any time.
It is particularly common for mothers and children to throw down the abyss when they give birth to disabled or mentally retarded children;
Those who are suspected of fornicating with men, such as those who are eye-to-face with the guards, are thrown into the abyss by both sides, and many of them are unjustly killed;
Those who have become old and ugly and can no longer have children, in order to save food, except for a few who have given meritorious people as wives, the rest have also thrown themselves into the abyss;
Even those who are not dedicated enough to serve the patriarch and cause the latter to be unhappy will be thrown into the abyss.
And so on and so forth.
Hearing this, the cold hairs on people's whole body exploded, Chang Le only felt that the Demon Dragon Patriarch lacked moral integrity before, and now he has decided that this bastard is not a human!
He looked back at the hundreds of Demon Dragons:
"How many of your mothers are still alive?"
These people have long been adults, but they are not qualified to marry a wife, and the only woman they are close to in their lives is their mother, and their feelings must be deep.
After listening to Chang Le's questioning, most of them lowered their heads, tears flashed in their eyes, and some of them choked up and replied:
"I don't know, after the coming-of-age ceremony, I left the nursery and never saw my mother again. ”
"He knows what to do with your mother, right?
These words drew more and more cries, both of grief and guilt.
"It's all rubbish!" Chang Le roared, snatching the sacrificial knife from Pabadova's hand and raising it high into the air, "Who dares to come and avenge your mother with his own hands?"
"I'm coming!"
After a few stimuli, someone finally got up and rushed over, bringing more partners, and finally almost everyone rushed over.
It takes courage for the first one to stand up, and it is much easier for those who follow.
Chang Le nodded, let the leader take the knife, and watched him cut off the hands and feet of the patriarch according to the sacrifice requirements, and began to bleed.
The emotions of the masses were quickly ignited, and the roars and cheers shook the stone hall to the buzz.
The patriarch was trapped in the aura of the sacrificial altar, unable to resist or speak. He knew that he could not be spared, so he could only stare at Chang Le with eyes of despair and anger.
And as the large blood vessels on the side of his neck were cut, and the blood gushed out, gathering into a river in the groove of the stone platform, flowing along the pipe to the magic circle, his gaze finally gradually dimmed.
This kind of "father-killing" is only the patriarch's own infliction in Chang Le's view, and for this group of young people who have never received human moral education, they have no scruples.
Chang Le was more interested in the halo, standing aside and touching it with his hand, the insight talent was activated with all his might, and he carefully understood the mystery.
This is also the energy resonance composed of some kind of magic circle, but its mechanism seems to be stranger than the teleportation circle, but the effect is very clear, in this energy light, the control of the living soul over the body is deprived, if it is stronger, it can even extract the soul.
The elf princess directly lost her consciousness when she was in it, and with the strength of Wendy's soul, she even resisted the enslavement of the beast soul space, and she was almost unconscious just now, and she is still a little dazed.
If such a magic circle can be expanded thousands of times and used to ambush the enemy's army, it will be too sharp!
However, it can only be thought about, the diameter of the magic circle has expanded a little, and the driving energy required has been multiplied by geometric progressions, if you want to spend hundreds of thousands of black magic crystals to ambush the enemy army, it is too extravagant, it is better to use this money to equip an army of millions.
Soon, Chang Le perceived his talent and realized that the blood shed by the sacrifice flowed out of the altar pipe and flowed along the ground lines, but this fancy pattern did not have any magical reaction, it was purely a pretend.
And the real effect of bloodletting and killing people like this is to make the victims in the halo slowly weaken, and gradually dominate their souls by the magic circle, and finally completely extract them!
In his soul vision, the soul light of the Demon Dragon Patriarch had detached from his body and slowly rose, condensing on the top of the halo.
After another period of resistance and suppression, the soul finally deformed, turned into a bright thin line, and shot towards the "Otherworldly Gate", but instead of passing through the door, it hit a gem on the door frame.
The Otherworldly Gate immediately shone brightly, and the dark blue light curtain in the door quickly glowed green.
Understood! Chang Le has completely understood it so far!
The so-called sacrifice is not to feed the soul to some otherworldly demon dragon at all, but to charge the teleportation circle!
Behind the door may be a demon dragon, or even something else, because the demon dragon clan has existed for decades, and it is a small cult group formed by the old patriarch, and the so-called "demon dragon" is originally a lie.
This abyss was just discovered eighteen years ago, and the old patriarch understood the role of the portal, which could be used to enslave the dark creatures, so he used this place as a new base, claiming that the demon dragon was sealed behind the door, and only a few souls were needed to provide for it, and it could be successfully resurrected.
In fact, he just wants to use dark creatures to empower and continue his absurd life.
The dark creatures did help him a lot, the demon dragon clan, which only had a few hundred young and middle-aged men, was able to suppress the huge elven kingdom, relying on the defense of the evil spirit insects and the attack of the necromantic knights!
However, this portal is too large and the connected space is too far away to be used as an energy source by ordinary black magic crystals, but fortunately, this gem can transform human souls into powerful power and activate the magnificent teleportation circle.
However, the souls used in the sacrifice are strong and weak, and when the energy is insufficient, only weak creatures like evil spirit insects can pass through, and the more powerful the creatures, the more they need to completely activate the entire door, that is, turn into a pure green light curtain.
After the old patriarch sacrificed countless times, it was finally his turn to be sacrificed, and his soul seemed to be very strong, so the state of the door was quite ideal, I wonder what powerful creatures would come over this time?
Also, when powerful creatures come, why are they willing to be driven by others?
Pabadova quickly answered Chang Le's question, he took a ring from the finger of the old patriarch's corpse, held it in both hands and sent it to Chang Le's eyes:
"Master, this is a high-grade spirit weapon ring, 'Call of Death', which can increase the magic power of the dark mage, the old patriarch himself is a war officer, and the reason why he has been wearing it is because it can also drive away dark creatures. ”
Chang Le took the ring and smiled:
"To tell you the truth, before you became my soul servant just now, did you think about hiding this fact, and when I left, you, the patriarch, put on the ring, and from then on the dark creatures will be at your disposal?"
Pabadova was ashamed:
"I'm sorry, master, I did think so, not in the future. ”
"I said, don't call me master, call me patriarch. ”
"Yes, Patriarch. Pabadova still had some worry in his expression, "Lord...... This, patriarch, the old patriarch is that after owning this ring, the whole person is becoming more and more evil, whether you want to wear it or not, please consider carefully!"
"A ring is a ring, how can you turn people bad? You old patriarch is a bastard in the first place!"
Chang Le smiled contemptuously, took the ring and put it on his finger.
"Don't wear it!" Wendy ran over to a frightened cry.
"Little madman, are you awake?" Chang Le had already finished his movements, and opened his five fingers with a smile: "I put it on, what, have you become a bad person?"
Wendy's always unserious little face is extremely serious at the moment:
"Big-tongued! I'm not kidding! Death Call is a real magic weapon that brings bad luck to its owner!"
"Where's the bad luck?" Chang Le smiled and looked around, "Let me see, what does bad luck look like?"
"That's what it looks like!" Wendy ran up to the altar and pointed to the corpse of the old patriarch on the stone platform, "This is bad luck!"
Chang Le's smile converged, he understood what the other party meant, nodded and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a strong energy fluctuation.
Portals are starting to come out!
He hurriedly rushed out, took Wendy into his arms, and withdrew dozens of meters with her.
One, two, three...... More than 20 necromantic birds have emerged from the blue-green changing light curtain!
It is said that in the past, the most common visitors after sacrifices were evil spirit insects, and necromantic birds were not only rare, but also could only produce a few at most.
It seems that the patriarch's soul is indeed strong enough, and the portal is activated very fully!
As soon as these terrifying monsters appeared, they pushed and bit each other, screaming violently, frightening the young people of the Demon Dragon Clan to retreat like a tide, leaving a blank space around the altar within a hundred meters.
But the monsters quickly fell silent, and their eyes all looked at Chang Le.
Chang Le could also feel the "Call of Death" ring on his finger exuding a faint cold air, and he could even feel the connection between himself and the dark creatures.
But he felt that he didn't need so many dark minions, but the soul energy in the gem was quite useful, and it was a pity to run out of it, so he rushed away, plucking the psychedelic gem from the door frame, and completely dimming the portal.
The communication between wearing the ring and the necromantic bird is much less complicated than that of the soul servant of the beast soul space, and it is impossible to really talk, but only to convey simple consciousness.
For the rest, for example, when he asked what the other side of the door looked like, the necromantic bird could not express anything but a "dark" thought.
I don't know if it's a one-way portal, maybe I won't be able to come back, Chang Le himself certainly didn't dare to go in and see it in person, so he commanded these necromantic birds to leave with the Demon Dragon Clan, and settle down in the "Dragon Cave" where the rest of the necromantic birds lived.
The clan calls the necromantic bird "flying dragon", but in fact, this thing is certainly not a bird, let alone a dragon.
Wendy was caught as a sacrifice by the necromantic bird, and when she saw this thing again, she naturally screamed in fright, and she didn't dare to show her head into Chang Le's arms.
Chang Le smiled and stroked her hair comfortingly:
"Don't be afraid, I'm wearing that ring, and these monsters are my servants, and I'll let them kowtow to you later. ”
Wendy gradually calmed down, was silent for a moment, and looked up at him:
"The ring is very powerful, but I still don't feel at ease, it's too dark, it's too evil!"
Chang Le said softly:
"It is important for me to save the country and the people now, as long as the goal is right, and no means will be used to achieve great things, do you understand? As for this ring, if I find that something is wrong, I will take it off, you don't worry about me?"
"Don't worry!" Wendy pouted, "It doesn't matter if it's someone else, you're my man, of course I'm not at ease!"
"!" Chang Le laughed, "What are we doing? How can I be your man?"
After saying this, he suddenly understood what Wendy meant, and added:
"Kissing doesn't count!"
"Why don't you kiss your mouth!"
Wendy was so anxious that her little face turned red, and Chang Le laughed, the little girl was too ignorant to understand that there was a more intimate relationship between men and women, but he didn't want to add impurities to that pure heart, so he talked about it left and right, and asked Wendy to heal the elf princess and others.
Those women's souls were damaged, ordinary medicine was useless, and they needed high-level light magic to heal.
Wendy is naughty and kind, and after being reminded by Chang Le, she went to see her new friend's injury with a worried face, and her hands faintly began to light up with golden light.
Chang Le looked at her back and sighed, the Demon Dragon Clan may also have such a naughty and innocent girl, but they have to face such a "coming-of-age ceremony", I don't know what kind of mood they were in at that time?
Thinking of that strange ceremony, Chang Le's face suddenly warmed up, and he suddenly had a strange thought in his heart.
Putting aside the immoral factors, let's just talk about the scene, a group of pure girls who have never been close to men, prostrate in line, the whole row of snow-white round buttocks raised, the scenery between the legs is different, but they are all the same green and delicate, just waiting for the first cultivation and development,
This is probably a scene of accomplishment for any man!
It's just that the original patriarch is too stupid, how can he let the family lie on his stomach, he should always lie down to see the girl's face, and he can see more beautiful scenery, and then pull those little feet up and carry them on his shoulders......
Unconsciously, Chang Le was already fantasizing about hosting another "coming-of-age ceremony" by himself.
Then he shook his heart and jerked the "Call of Death" off his fingers.
Sure enough, after the ring was removed, his mood suddenly became calmer, and some parts of his body that were originally excited gradually calmed down.
It seems that after wearing the ring, he seems to have no special feelings, but the darkness gradually envelops his will and soul, and when he thinks and makes decisions again, he unconsciously deviates.
"What kind of 'doom ring' is this?" Chang Le gritted his teeth, "It's a hooligan ring at all!"
"Patriarch, what's going on?" asked Pabadova with a little puzzlement as he knew about Changle's psychic warfare.
Chang Le took a deep breath and put the ring back on his finger, it was best to wear this thing when he was not leaving the Demon Abyss.
But he originally planned to go to see the so-called "conservation area", but now he is exempt, in case he sees beautiful women like clouds, he is afraid that under the influence of the ring, he will learn from the old patriarch to swallow them alone.
"You go and gather everyone, men, women, and children, and I have to set the rules for everyone before I leave, new rules!"
